السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
Let's take a look at an analogy together. If I told you the more a baby is fed, the more it will grow, would you agree?
I don't think anyone in their right minds would object. The same way believe me when I say that the more your emotions are fed the more they will grow.
How can emotions possibly be fed you ask me. I say the feeding of emotions is thinking about it.
Back to the analogy. The more you feed a baby with healthy food the more healthy it's going to be when it grows up.
Same way the more you fill your mind with positive thoughts the more positivity your life is going to possess and the opposite is also true.
What I'm trying to get to is that we all are babies when it comes to our emotions and fears. Sounds funny? 🤭 Yes I know.
The following are some examples of negative thoughts and how to fight them with positivity.
- You feel you are lonely and nobody loves you? - Just know that Allah sent everyone away so that it's only you and Him. Also He loves you 70 times more than your mother does. 😍
- You feel that you are ugly and everybody else is far better looking than you are? - Allah says
(لَقَدۡ خَلَقۡنَا ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنَ فِیۤ أَحۡسَنِ تَقۡوِیمࣲ)
Verily, We created man in the best stature
[Surat At-Tin 4]
- You fear the future and what it holds? - Think of all the good stuff that has happened so far. Say to yourself that better things are on their way.
- You fear the darkness and all unreal beasts that lurk within? - Be assured that if they are real they wouldn't wait all these years and do nothing but watch you sleep. 😂
- You fear the corona virus and the harm that it brings? - Know that without the permission of Allah nothing can harm you. Definitely not a virus that's not visible to the naked eye. ☺️
Whatever fear or negative thought that you come up with, there's positivity to combat it. Fill your mind with positivity and you will see wonders happen before your eyes with the will of Allah.
So my dears, don't worry about matters that you can't control and think of what you can do to change your way of thinking so that it develops in the best way possible.
